only a little work and that Is thought
Ineffective owing to the low condition
of the public pulse. In conversation
with one of the West Side candidates
yesterday he sutd that the county tlck
" et Is now the foremoBt topic. The lead
ers now seem to be E. E. Robuthan,
Isaac Jones, M. E. ganders, and there
Is a feullnc thut Hon. John ft. Farr' Is
also working for the nomination.
Others mentioned are II. A. Hatton and
H. D. Jones.

Twentieth War Republicans Will Make
a Fine Showing ia Ratiflcatioa
ParadeBand Wants Pay.
Imbued with the splril with being
second to none In the parade in en
thusiasm if not In numbers, the Re
publicans of the Twentieth ward have
proceeded to have everything in readi
ness to Join in the ratification of Mc
K In ley and Hobart next Tuesday
evening. There are about J50 Republi
cans in the ward, and every man ot.
them will be out. Judging from Indica
tions. Hon. Alex. T. Connell will have the
caps at Philips' hall Monday evonlng
and each- man will call around and get
one, so that it will not be necessary to
have any delay In fitting men the
evening of the parade. The request Is
made that all who can will be around
on Monday evening to get fitted with
a cap. Announcement will be made
later as to the time the Twentieth ward
club will assemble on Tuesday evening
at the hall.
THEY WANT THEIR WAGES.
Somebody hired the Forest band to
play for William Connell Hose com
pany In the firemen's annual parade on
September 26, 1895. The band charges
$50 for the services on such occasions.
They are still whistling for the money
earned on that day. One says that
Dan Battle hired the band, another
that John Gibbons did, and another
that the company did. The delinquency
caused a good deal of gossip in fire
men's circles, and rather than see the
bill outlawed a collection was taken up
to defray It. Ex-chief of the fire depart
ment, H. P. Ferber, gave $10 out of his
own pocket, and others contributed
various sums, until the total reached
$60. The band has not received it yet.
They have recently purchased new unl
forms and could apply the $50 very
readily at the present time.
